I gotta stop getting influenced by the internet; that's my fault. Let's start there. After hearing Giant Bomb folks go coo-coo for Donkey Kong on Nintendo Game Boy, I took the plunge and got the Nintendo Switch Online trial. The trial is bad . Maybe, however, the rumors about the little arcade game were true. The short answer to that is: Nope. Fell for it again, stupid! You dummy! For a reference point, Donkey Kong…
It’s been a year since Atlus released their controversial game, Catherine . While only being available in Japan at the time, the story and difficulty level of Catherine gained a lot of attention quickly and a localization effort was made to bring the title to Western audiences. American regions were blessed a few months later, with the US release in July. Now, 12 months after the original, the game is finally…
Putting the word ‘harvest’ in front of any game revolving in the slightest towards the farming culture has paid off for games in the past. Harvest Fishing tells the unlikely tale of a young boy, whose sister has fallen into a comatose sleep, even if they can still communicate. His goal is to become a worldly renowned fisherman by only using a fishing rod, instead of professional equipment. By capturing the infamous…
Samurai Shodown is only one of many fighters in the Neo Geo line-up, but there is one thing that it does different. Set In feudal Japan, the authentic settings of yore get accompanied by characters wearing the appropriate kimonos and such. More important than this genuine presentation both in appearance and traditional sound, the game is also a pioneer in the use of weaponry. Its anime appearance would later be an…

Since Giant Bomb rose from the ashes, allow me to sort of do the same, despite making my last list . I didn't think I'd return to a three year old series, but here we are. For those wondering, I was planning to finally play every Pokémon generation, before the world and my own life cratered. This road started with wrapping up all of Pokémon Yellow in writing on this website about video games. A...

Well darn, it looks like some folks around here are acting foolishly and need some reminders. That's all good and swell, because that means that we get to, once again, perform my favorite activity: making a list. Huzzah! We should look at some games that have, also, lost their way and caused a real concern for the nice people who worked so hard on it, just for you. It's such a shame that there...

Another eventful PUBG: Battlegrounds season has come to an end and what a tumultuous year it's been for its eSports branch, in particular. For one, the unification of the regular game and eSports settings means that maps are now more varied, both in their pool as well as in the things inside of them. Sandstorms on Miramar and blizzards in the snowy Vikendi tear through the landscape, as players...

After watching the huge Double Fine documentary about Psychonauts 2 , I wanted to go back and watch the Broken Age one again. My memory no longer exists. I feel like I now have intimate knowledge of the development studio (I don't) , especially since both documentaries constantly reference earlier footage. Those callbacks also established a history that I found increasingly bizarre. Yet, no one...

I've already completed my picks for GOTY 2022 . I think that you'll find them to be the best choices on this site. All other games are inferior. However, Giant Bomb has surprised us with some list variations this year. So, inspired by the works of Jan and Tam , I will be transforming some games into alternate media as well. I've picked ten games and paired them with their metal track counterpar...

At some point, I need to call it, when it comes to playing cool games in 2022. I've used December to hold a mad dash of releases I hadn't played, to potentially put on a list. In just these few weeks, I've played Super Kiwi 64 , Immortality , 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim , Triangle Strategy , Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising and Marvel Snap . That's what I could afford, at least. Except for Triangle Strate...
